Maduku Mamata was born on a tiny speck of land in the Solomon Islands, a pacific archipelago that is known as much for its desperate financial state as its outstanding natural beauty.
From growing up and helping his parents with their subsistence farming, to losing them at a young age and attending school to make sure he would be able to make his own way in the world, Maduku weaves an intricate story of how he ended up in Brisbane, attending college there to better his life.
Deported Into Destiny is a story of hardship, a desperation to make things better for one’s self and for others, as well as lessons learned the hard way. But it is also an enduring story of love and of doors opening when you least expect them to. This is a story of salvation amidst the wreckage of a single mistake and of hope triumphing eventually over adversity.

He obtained a Diploma certificate in Business English & Letter Writing from Cambridge International College in the UK through distance learning. He is passionate about Youth Leadership transformation and entrepreneurship. He is an orphan with both parents deceased. But he is doing fine after their passing, and endeavor to pass on what he learned in life to high school dropouts like himself. He is working on his second book, and expect to launch it in 2020.
I believe we want the best for our children, and would endeavor and strive to do everything in our power to give them a better future and also for them to say to people or someone that " I am what and who I am today because of what my parents did." I am a work in progress and I am sharing from personal experience. My mom is my greatest hero, she passed away now. What she taught and instilled in me guided me over the years: Hard work, self-discipline and respect for oneself and for one's fellow neighbor. I intend to pass on these values to the generation after me. I believe that if ALL we know eventually dies with us, we are a failure, a generational one. I hope that we will begin to identify someone that we would begin to transfer, mentor and pour ourselves into to rob the graveyard of our treasure(s)
Book Excerpt
Deported Into Destiny
She didn’t want them to go through what she had been through as a little girl, never getting an education because her parents didn’t have the money to send her to school. She wanted it to be different for her children and her grandchildren. She wanted a generational change for her children and for me, her nephew.
